# Residential block [View the canonical artwork record]() ## Artwork - Artist: [WAGNER, Otto]() - Date: 1851-1900 - Technique: Photo ## Commentary During the 1870s, Wagner designed and built speculatively the first of a career-long series of 13 large residential blocks, all modelled to a greater or lesser extent on his family home and each of which Wagner lived in briefly until the next had been built. Those at Schottenring 23 \(1877\) and Stadiongasse 6-8 \(1882\) are typical examples, with rusticated lower floors and trabeated openings; the former has an ornate iron balcony to the three central rooms of the second floor. ## Related artworks - [Armchair No. 8]() - [Armchair]() - [Armchair]() - [Kirche am Steinhof: general view]() - [Kirche am Steinhof: interior]() - [Kirche am Steinhof: interior]() - [Kirche am Steinhof: main façade]() - [Länderbank: façade]() - [Länderbank: interior]() - [Majolica House: detail of the façade]() - [Majolica House: detail of the façade]() - [Majolica House: façade]() ## Attribution [Web Gallery of Art]()
